This article describes the procedures and requirements of .mn domain names.Click on the subject below to open the dropdown for more information.

.mn domain registration↓

You can register a .mn domain through our API or control panel. This registration is real time and requires the following information:

the domain's contact handles (owner, administrative, etc.)

two or more nameservers or a nameserver group

.mn domain transfer↓

A transfer has to be registered with an authorization code. The current registrar then has ten days to object or approve the transfer. If no approval is given within ten days, the transfer will complete automatically.

Contact our Sales department to check if easy transfer of 100 or more .mn domains is available.

.mn domain update and trade (owner change)↓

Update owner (trade)

Update other data

A change of ownership can be done by replacing the owner contact in the control panel. After saving the changes the change is processed realtime.

A change of contactdetails can be done by updating the associated handles in the control panel. After saving the changes the domainname will be updated realtime.

.mn domain delete (expiration) and reactivation (restore)↓

Delete / expiration

Restore / reactivation

A delete is realtime. After a delete the domain will be in quarantine status for 30 days.

A domain name can be restored for 30 days after the domain name has been deleted or expired.

If a domain expired and a soft quarantine period applies (see the table below), restore is possible for the duration of the soft quarantine period plus the duration of the 'normal' quarantine period. A restore during the soft quarantine period is without additional costs (only the renewal is charged), while a restore during the normal quarantine period comes with additional costs. Soft quarantine only applies to expired domains; it never applies after sending a 'delete' command to Openprovider.
